You are correct, I’ll fix it, thanks!

There didn’t seem to be silence when switching, but a quick noticeable volume boost for a second, during the switch, and then it balanced out. The 2 presets are volume matched as close as I could get it, not sure where that quick volume burst is coming from?
I didn’t notice it at home when I was testing it, maybe something else going on. The difference in the captures (both dirty), are one is mine that I made from my Marshall JMP100, and the other I downloaded from the Cortex cloud, so neither are stock captures, if that makes any difference?
I think capture Origin make no matter. But What you notice about the volume up and fall is strange…
Strange for sure. I’ll replace the IA capture and see if it makes a difference when switching presets.
Not sure if this has anything to do with it, but I was just re-reading the manual in the “create capture” section and noticed you’re supposed to have the Nano Cortex’s GAIN knob at the minimum position, (I didn’t), and to use the slider in the app to set the level. I wonder if that added more gain to the capture and maybe over-saturated it? I’ll re-capture my amp and see if there’s a difference as well.
I think not. Capture gain is What your setting amp is. But I have an idea ! Look at level effect of your reverb or modulation. If you change preset with both same effect but one have a hight level and the othet low… It could make Lebel jumping.Take a look !
Not sure what you meant at the end of your message?
The A preset only has a little bit of reverb and the
B Preset only has delay, and no reverb.
I mean, if you have delay on preset A, try to have the exact same settings in preset B. Even if delay is off. And same with reverb. Am I clear ?
Ok, understood. I’ll take a look, thanks!
I tested the switching both with the matched fx settings on and off and did not hear the volume bump issue.
What IS concerning is when I engage the ground switch on the back of the Nano, my output level decreases 50%, as if that ground switch were a pad. Has anyone else noticed this??
I see there’s also an issue of saving eq tweaks between presets. This is getting really annoying.
So…I changed the Treble on a preset, went to another preset, came back to the preset I just tweaked and the Treble adjustment wasn’t saved.
I tried holding the Capture button for 2sec as we discussed earlier to change levels between presets but it didn’t save either. Is this a bug, or is there another mode we have to enter to adjust eq per preset? Not impressed
I was reading your post about what you said here: “noticed you’re supposed to have the Nano Cortex’s GAIN knob at the minimum position, (I didn’t)”. You are wrong, read the sentence until the end. You have to put to the minimum the GAIN when you want engage BOOST switch. It’s to not have a big noise in your ears. If you make a capture, the GAIN control must be adjusted until a GREEN ring. Not too low, not too high. I try a lot of configuration and a GAIN just before the RED ring, with a confortable gap is THE BEST. GREEN ring but with 2 or 3 marks before red. You have to play more LOUD possible and see there is never RED ring. Never clipping.
Hmmm, that’s not how it’s worded in the manual I have, when using the app anyway. Nothing mentioned about the boost.
You can see in the image, it shows the GAIN knob set all the way down:
Ensure the target device’s settings are set to your liking and the Nano Cortex’s GAIN knob is at the minimum position.
** CAPTURE GAIN**: Drag the slider to increase the CAPTURE INPUT gain up to a maximum of +24dB.*
** OUTPUT LEVEL**: Drag to control the overall output volume of the Nano Cortex (OUTPUT 1L and Headphones).*
** IR LOADER**: Tap to toggle the IR Loader bypass state.*
** IR SLOT**: Tap to select the IR slot.*
** START CAPTURE**: Tap to begin the Capture process.*
However, when I had the GAIN knob at down and tried to make a capture, using the slider to increase the input, 2 times the app disconnected from the Nano and I had to power cycle the Nano and re-sync the app. Since then I used the GAIN knob.
QK, i anderstood the way it’ s explain. (I think).
You have to set Gain Knob to zéro first, THEN you set your pedal or preamp, etc… AFTER, when all your settings are ok to your ears, you have to raise the Gain for a correct level input, I think the reason is to not add gain to What you are earing from your gear. So, When level is correct, Green ring. You can capture.
I show you the screen capture of what i believed you was talking about. It’s on the yellow box…
For me it’ s perfectly anderstanding Because all the Level must always come from analogique stuff first and numeric after if you have no solution.

Ok, yes, that makes sense about starting with the gain all the way down, then setting your amp level, etc.
Still not clear on how to save EQ settings for presets, after they’re created. Do you have to go back to the actual capture and adjust it?
Thanks!
First point, when I load a New capture in preset, i create a New preset. No copy or save as… with
ALL my Knob are 12H.
After, if i need to adjust EQ, i know the capture as 12h as reference, i set like i want and save.
I Choose to disable the option KNOB OPERATION MODE it allowed me to not change accidently settings. And nothing happened until knob return to the reference value.
When you load a preset you can ALWAYS see on knob ring where is the value for each knob.
If you copy a preset to load your new capture, copy the preset, sets all the knobs to 12H, save, load the new capture, save and after you can change values.
Makes sense, re: knobs, but when I change the level of the BASS & TREBLE knobs and they show a new value on the LED’s, the change is not saved.
The way to test is to load a preset, change the TREBLE, etc, save, go to a different preset, then go back to the first preset and it sounds exactly the same as it did before changing the TREBLE.
For some reason the changes are not being saved. Maybe you have to enter a different mode such as you explained about CAPTURE mode when changing/saving the adjusted output level?
When you change value, do you see the little disk appears ? I try and it works ! I dont anderstand why not… After you change values You have to push SAVE 2s of course ?
Yes, I see the disk light up and I save, and have also saved by pressing save on the unit itself.
I just tried with a new capture and it’s not working either.
As soon as I go to a different Capture or Preset and come back to the preset I tried to save, the previous changes are not saved. I don’t understand why it doesn’t work either, but it’s really getting on my nerves, lol
I’ve tried to save changes to the capture and the preset of the same capture and neither works.
Hum… So curious…
Ok, I think I see what’s happening here. I was trying to save EQ changes on the CAPTURE itself and they weren’t saving, Gd knows why?
When I saved the EQ changes on the actual PRESET, they are saving, but… I can’t modify the preset as far as adding reverb, delay, gate etc? Why?
The only way I can get seem to add reverb, etc is to go to the CAPTURE itself and add it, but then there is the issue that the previous EQ changes aren’t saved there. Do I need to go to the CAPTURE, add the Reverb, etc, and save a new preset and then add the eq again? This all seems crazy to me. Why can’t you add Reverb, etc to a stored preset, but you can change the eq? Maybe I’m still doing something wrong…
